You are mozzarella! So says they. They also say - You are a shiny, soft,
round cheese. Oh krap, they've seen me naked!

The first time I took the quiz, I answered as honestly as I could.
Quizzes that ask you to choose the best answer when any could apply
depending on the situation are always ridiculous, but I love those
absurd quizzes, can't resist them. It told me I was Brie which made me
shrug my shoulders. I like Brie. It's not quite as flavorful as
others, but it's O.K. I like other cheeses too.


Then I retook the quiz choosing the LEAST appropropriate answer each
time. It told me I was American cheese. Now is that fitting or what?
American cheese. Bleah.

We call it "dog cheese." The singles keep forever in the fridge. When
the dog has to take a pill, we wrap it in dog cheese. It molds around
the pill quite nicely and thus can be used as a treat for good behavior.
The dog knows the sound of dog cheese plastic and will come running
when she hears it being unwrapped. No other plastic from the fridge
gets the same reaction. Of course, we never touch the dog cheese unless
it is for her.

Woof!

I don't care what anyone says, I love grilled cheese sandwiches and nothing
works like a good Kraft shingle. Stay away from Borden's. They truly have
zero flavor. I bet your dog would concur.

Yeah, I used to buy the singles when I had to feed the dog a pill
every morning and night. I would not eat it myself.

If you look, perhaps your store carries Kraft Deluxe. It is not
individually wrapped. It's the closest thing to the real American
cheese I grew up on. Other than maybe color, the real thing bears
no resemblence to those yucky singles. (smile) Perhaps you won't
like that, either, it's cheddar like, but don't think those singles
things are even cheese.

I second Nancy on the individally wrapped slices not being real American
Cheese. Most deli sections tend to have sliced american cheese. The kraft
deluxe is good, but I don't buy it since Kraft is importing milk from Canada
for their cheese making these days, and my dad, a dairy farmer, asked the
family to boycott kraft cheese products.

I haven't seen those in a long time, Nanc, and I've looked. Tillimook, a
onetime quality cheese producer, has recently come out with AC shingles, but
thay don't really do it, either.

Most of them aren't. Borden's, once an icon for wholesome milk, now has
zero milk in it. They didn't even bother to put in a poor facsimile of
cheese flavor. They're just plain ol' yellow vegetable oil-based polyvinyl
crud, as are many house brands, like Albertson's, etc. They taste just like
brie.

(laugh) Well, I felt badly about even feeding the singles to my dog,
but she didn't seem to mind. American cheese as I had it, growing up,
came in a box, it was somehow waxed? and about a foot long. Sliced
American cheese slabs (?). My father was in the Army, so he got it
from the commisary. Bore no resemblence to the current singles. I
promise. Damned shame that people might think that is American
cheese, those singles. Gimme a box of that Army cheese any day.

I'm sure it does. I just never thought to buy it. The supermarket has
a good selection of cheeses. I usually get an all-purpose cheddar
there. There are specialty markets for when I want the better blues or
others.

Yeah, I remember those. You can still get Velveeta like that.

Kraft Singles are real cheese, just like Velveeta is real cheese... not what
I'd call gourmet but it is real cheese. Bordens, etal. make two types, the
real one and the fake one (read the labels). The price will tell you which is
real cheese, Kraft Singles, for what they are, are not inexpensive.

I believe Kraft defines American cheese as a "cheese food product" lol, not
exactly CHEESE

What Kraft cheese product are you talking about?

Regardless, the point was that the singles are not to be confused
with American cheese.

Many years ago, someone gave us an American Cheese loaf from
a "give away"... it was one of the ways the US gvt
subsidized milk at the time). I was surprised at how good
it was! It wasn't the usual velveeta (good or bad), it was
milder and creamier than longhorn and it really appealed to
my children - who were under 10 at the time.


Practice safe eating - always use condiments

i'm smoked provolone...yummmmmm ;o)

As a senior citizen, Grandmother used to get that Government cheese;
she made an excellent hot dip out of it...

I took it twice because I was torn on some questions....

I'm either Mozzarella or Chevres.

Hmm.

But my favorite part of the quiz was from the description of Swiss Cheese:

"You are indifferent to the world around me. You are dreamy and often lost
in my thoughts."

And I felt instantly like I'd met my true cheese match. I'll only accept
people who are indifferent to the world around me if they're truly lost in
*my* thoughts.

Egomaniacheese much?

Kraft has a couple of different items labeled as American "cheese".
If you look at the small print, some of them say "cheese food" or
"cheese product", but some just say "cheese." If it says "cheese food"
it contains other ingredients beside cheese. If it just says "cheese"
then it is just cheese.

Mozzarella. The explanation seemed only half-right; then again, some
of my real choices were not on the lists of answers.
